When we first saw the paragraph Tuesday, just after the 1,018-page document was released, we thought we surely must be misreading it. So we sought help from the House Ways [...]

Why Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor should not be appointed
Posted on July 14, 2009 by Ben
It’s simple – Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor is a racist. There is no evidence to indicate anything different.
As for others, my assessment is also born from comments Sotomayor made during a 2001 lecture at the University of California-Berkeley. Referring to former Justice Sandra Day O’Connor’s saying that

Posted on July 13, 2009 by anamericanidiot
Bristol Palin made the mistake of her mother’s life when she decided to sleep with dirtbag Levi Johnston. After months of digging for dirt and trying to destroy Sarah Palin, liberals finally tapped into a source. Now they must make him appear credible.

Should we trust those who can’t read to lead?

Who would buy a car without reading the sales contract? Who would sign a business parnership without reading the contract and discussing the details with an attorney?

It’s OK to be sexist if you’re a Democrat
Posted on July 9, 2009 by anamericanidiot
When Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro’s 1984 bid for the Presidency ended in failure, the two faded into political obscurity. Their moment in the limelight came to an end even as the votes were being tallied. (It was 9 years before Clinton gave her political career new life.) No one stalked Ferraro and [...]
